Presentation Production

We aim to help you shed light on those photographs buried for years in photo albums and dust off the home videos stacked in a box in the garage and craft them into a unique Digital Photo Album or moving tribute to play for guests at a special occasion.

Consider weaving a photo story as a tribute to the guest of honour as an alternative to speeches at a milestone birthday, graduation, engagement, wedding, anniversary, or retirement celebration. Readily accessible and enjoyable to watch, a Story Weavers presentation can also be a great way to share the news of baby’s arrival, a personal and touching gift, or simply an easy way to preserve and share your family heritage.

We offer two DVD story packages:

• A Featurette Presentation is a good option for achieving high impact in a short amount of time. A Featurette can contain up to 60 images set to a single song. It provides simple image transitions only and basic pan and zoom effects.
  
  
• Main Feature Presentations are custom designed to your requirements and provide the opportunity to introduce video as well as static images.

We employ a range of tools and techniques including image backgrounds and frames, animations, titling, special effects and complex image transitions to achieve a polished result that incorporates your own chosen theme and personal tastes.

To create a photo story you provide:

• A selection of photographs, video, film, or memorabilia to be included in your digital story.
• Your music choices.
• Information on the purpose of the story creation – for example to play at a 21st Birthday party.
• A theme for the presentation if required – for example hobbies or sporting interests for the birthday boy or girl (Main Feature only).

We then work within your requirements to produce your digital photo story, which may include:

• Scanning and/or enhancing your photographs
• Editing video footage
• Selecting suitable photo frames or backgrounds, including animation where appropriate
• Titling, captions and credits where appropriate
• Story construction including sequencing, photo transitions and special effects
• Customising the soundtrack
• Compiling the digital output, such as an executable file on USB or standard DVD
• Designing disc and cover art.

Pricing is based on the number of photos to be included in the presentation and starts at $99.95 for 60 images (approximately 4 minutes viewing time) in a Featurette Presentation.
